The oration will follow the official opening by Justice McMurdo of USC’s Moot Court, a facility that was constructed recently to give Law students the opportunity to practise working in a courtroom environment. This event will begin at 5.15pm.

The best time for media to photograph/film Justice McMurdo at USC will be at 5pm, prior to the Moot Court opening.

NOTE: Justice McMurdo will not be available for interviews.

USC’s Foundation Professors of Law and Co-Heads of the Law School, Neil and Anne Rees, said they were looking forward to welcoming one of the State’s most senior judges to the University.

“This is a great milestone for the USC Law School,” Professor Anne Rees said. “It is quite a feature of law school life to have a leader in the law give a lecture about a topical matter.

“We’re delighted that Justice McMurdo accepted our invitation and we’re looking forward to a stimulating address about a topic of great interest that deserves community debate.”
